Hello everybody!! My name is Jayson (he/him/his), and I am from Howell, New Jersey. I am also a Filipino-American. I am a sophomore Biology major and a Healthcare Management minor on the premed track. At Temple, I am involved in the Temple University Philippine American Council (TUPAC), Phi Delta Epsilon professional pre-medical fraternity (PhiDe), and the Temple University American Medical Students Association (AMSA). Further, I am a peer leader within the College of Science and Technology, an undergraduate researcher that engaged in cancer research involving the role of diet and inflammation and seeking other opportunities to conduct further research, and a volunteer at Temple's Hospital. I love going out and trying new foods Philly has to offer, exploring the city, playing volleyball, going to the gym, going to the Jersey beaches over the summer, and traveling and learning about other cultures. I am very excited to get to know all of you, and feel free to ask me questions about anything; I am always down to talk!
